Lyrics of Ruby Redden – Junk Car

I’m not a junk car

Check engine light came on again
Never buy a car from a friend
I took it down to the body shop
The man stared at my body’s top
Well excuse me here’s the key could you have it done today
That dirty man slapped my can when I turned to walk away
Hey hey hey hey

I’m not a junk car no sir
Treat me like a real man should
Like drive me around on a Saturday night
Before you look under my hood
You want my bumper or my headlights
You got to fire up my heart
I’m not a junk car no sir
You’re not going to use me for my parts

I just got a call from the man down at the shop
Talking about my parts and how much they’re going to cost
But I just knew when my engine light turned red
Somehow I blew a gasket on the cylinder head
That’s what she said

I went back to the body shop
The man still staring at my body’s top
Did you get her done What do I owe you for
He just smiled and opened up my door
Well, there’s a note with a rose laying on the driver’s seat
Saying you don’t even owe a thing baby it’s on me
That’s right he knows me

I’m not a junk car no sir
Treat me like a real man should
Like drive me around on a Saturday night
Before you look under my hood
You want my bumper or my headlights
You got to fire up my heart
I’m not a junk car no sir
You’re not going to use me for my parts
Take it away boys

I’m not a junk car no sir
Treat me like a real man should
Like drive me around on a Saturday night
Before you look under my hood
You want my bumper or my headlights
You got to fire up my heart
I’m not a junk car no sir
You’re not going to use me for my parts
No sir
